Hello readers, recently there’s been a lot of buzz online claiming that the IRS is planning to send a $1,390 direct deposit to Americans in November 2025. Many social media posts and forwarded messages suggest this is a new relief payment, but what’s the truth behind this claim?
What’s Really Happening?
The IRS has not announced any new stimulus or relief payments for November 2025. No legislation has been passed by Congress authorizing such a payment. The claims circulating online are mostly rumors or misinterpretations of past payments, particularly the COVID-era stimulus checks.
Why the Rumor is Spreading
The confusion comes from a combination of factors. Some political proposals, such as tariff dividend ideas or inflation relief programs, have been discussed publicly, but none of these proposals have become law. Additionally, social media posts often recycle old information from previous years, making it seem current.
Many scammers also take advantage of this excitement by sending emails, texts, or social media messages claiming you are eligible for the $1,390 direct deposit. These messages often ask for personal information, which the IRS will never request via email or text.
Official IRS Guidance
The IRS confirms that all Economic Impact Payments from previous years are completed. No new nationwide relief payments are planned for 2025. Taxpayers should only rely on official IRS communications and avoid sharing Social Security numbers, banking details, or other sensitive information with unknown sources.
How to Protect Yourself
- Ignore messages or social posts claiming immediate payments.
- Do not click on suspicious links or submit personal information online.
- Verify any IRS payment claims directly through official channels before taking any action.
Conclusion
The $1,390 direct deposit claim for November 2025 is false. There is no official program issuing this payment. Until the government announces any new relief programs, all such online claims should be treated as rumors or potential scams.
Stay informed, stay cautious, and always double-check IRS announcements before believing any claims about direct deposits or stimulus payments.
